Well, I think it never showed external clock when I set it to external ADAT, right now, freshly booted (without the ext. ADAT) just trying to play stereo on the s/pdif it shows:
RME Digi32/8 (Rev. 101) at 0xec000000, irq 5 (index #1)
General settings
Half-duplex mode
receiver: CS8412
format: 16 bit, Stereo
Input settings
input: optical
sample rate: no valid signal
Output settings
output signal: normal playback (muted)
sample rate: 44100 Hz
sample clock source: Internal
format: IEC958 (consumer)
emphasis: off
Which should be right for internally word clock’ed s/pdif output. However, aplay does not play anything, after some 20? seconds or so of hanging it even prints:
aplay: pcm_write:2011: write error: Input/output error
While it is “trying to playback” /proc shows:

I tried many kernels, down to 2.6.31, which I had initially on the box.
So unless some this hwparams never worked, this driver appears to not work a looong looooong time.
I doubt they are fully defect, as both behave the same and at least output “something” on Windows XP, ...

Yeah, guess I have to instrument this driver to track what is happening, maybe register not flushed to the hw?

However, the digital signal strangely unclean, but that may be a bug in the window system sound device emulation, I only tested with foobar2k and not some Pro audio app which I do not really have).
